For Herod had put him to death, though he was a good man.” - Josephus (c.37-c.100 C.E.) >“Now there was about this time Jesus, a wise man, if it be lawful to call him a man; for he was a doer of wonderful works, a teacher of such men as receive the truth with pleasure. He drew over to him both many of the Jews and many of the Gentiles.”—Flavius Josephus, Antiquities of the Jews (BookXVIII, chap.3, par.3).All secular historians agree that Jesus of Nazareth was executed by the Romans on behalf of the Jews. This was done at the Order of Pontius Pilate.
